How Did You Sleep Last Night?

I slept okay. My bedroom is being decorated so I'm not in my usual room. It isn't my bed - I miss my bed.

I am sleeping but I'm having a lot of dreams and not very nice ones.
 
Sleeping pattern is bad now. Having a lot of nightmares and they are all basically with the same theme.

Dreaming of being lost and trying to find my way home. Problem is I don't know where home is, so my whole focus in about searching with getting anywhere. Seems in a way pretty much the way my life has always been. Damn it... :mad::cry::eek:
 
Poorly, AGAIN. :(
I have been trying to get to bed at a set time, to allow enough time to sleep, but stayed up too late for hubby. So... I was in bed 6 hours, but my family woke me up four or five times, and one of them was when the alarm went off (unexpectedly) in my daughter's room at around 1 a.m.

She screamed the worst noise I've almost ever heard. We thought there was someone in the house, it was TERRIFYING! I ran down to her, so that was a rough one. I keep trying and trying to make the sleep work, but I haven't slept well more than maybe once or twice a month for almost eight years. And I wake up with my heart pounding. Lately have intrusive thoughts/flashes of my father (abuser) and it's pretty awful. Sigh.

It's actually the only item on my list to talk to my therapist about today.
 
I was sleeping fine, until Max decided he wanted to join Saffi and me on the bed. The room is stacked with stuff from the other bedroom (we are decorating). So, unfortunately, the only way for Max to get to the unoccupied side of the bed was by clambering over me.

Just what is needed, 25kg of hairy dog, using you as a climbing frame :eek:
 
I slept pretty well last night, Dreamt a bit although I can't remember what. Turned off the alarm clock and slept in, never mind it's Saturday morning, so who cares.
 
Terribly.

My cat kept me away ALL NIGHT, wanting to cuddle and purring in my ear, which was so adorable I couldn't turn her away, but then she'd leave, then come back, then leave again, then come back again and repeat the whole fiasco of cuddling, wanting me to nudge her and scratch under her chin...then fall asleep for about 5 minutes...then get up and run off, then come back again...etc.

It was so adorable, but I got no sleep and had to work 12 hours, which was CRAZY, full of crazy people. I'm hoping I get some sleep tonight because I have to do it all over again tomorrow. Things didn't end well tonight though, so I'm drinking a few glasses of red wine before I hit the sack, to sedate me and hopefully ensure I will not wake up once I am asleep, until the morning.
 
I've had insomnia since my teen years and have been taking sleeping pills for as long as I can remember. I keep at least six different brands next to my bed in case one doesn't work that day.

This past week I fell asleep twice without any pills. In both cases I woke up several times in the middle of the night to find my body flooded with adrenaline. My nervous system just doesn't take a break! So I guess I'll be back to daily sleeping pills but at least I was able to fall asleep without them even if it meant waking up every two hours.
 
I slept very fitfully. I got another bloody suppuration of my sinuses since 4 days now. Nice pain and fever. And still not allowed to take antibiotics. MEH!!! :mad: ...I think I'm in the "Limburger-mood"....
